where can i dump an old sofa

[DelVivienne]

So, your trusty sofa has seen its last movie marathon and is ready for retirement? It's a tough farewell, but let's give it a proper send-off. In Newton County, the one and only destination for your dearly departed divan is the Newton County Landfill, located at 11240 Lower River Road in Covington.

This is the designated place for "Bulky Waste," a category that gratefully includes furniture. For county residents, the minimum charge for this service is a mere $10.00 for anything up to 660 pounds. Unless your sofa has been secretly hoarding gold bars, that fee should easily cover its final journey.

Now, a word to the wise: don't even think about ghosting your couch at one of the local Convenience or Recycling Centers, like the ones on Bypass or Crowell Road. They are quite firm in stating that they do NOT accept furniture, mattresses, or other bulky items. A trip there would be a waste of your time and gas. Head straight to the landfill to give your old lounger the dignified end it deserves.
